Comparison Review

Comfort
Passengers in the back seat may find themselves a little more cramped in the Honda CR-V than the Jeep Wrangler. The Jeep Wrangler will be a hit with tall drivers and their front seat passengers, since it has greater front head- and legroom than the Honda CR-V.

Convenience
The Honda CR-V requires fewer stops at the gas station than the Jeep Wrangler, making it more convenient to drive.

Cost
There are a lot of factors to consider when calculating the overall cost of a vehicle. The main consideration is Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). Clearly, the Honda CR-V is a better financial choice over the Jeep Wrangler, when considering MSRP.

Dimensions
The Honda CR-V is about the same width as the Jeep Wrangler. When looking at overall length, the Honda CR-V takes up about the same amount of space in your garage as the Jeep Wrangler.

Handling
The Honda CR-V has a smaller turning radius than the Jeep Wrangler, allowing you to more easily maneuver in and out of tight spots.

Performance
In terms of towing capacity, the Jeep Wrangler is clearly the choice over the Honda CR-V for pulling heavy loads. When it comes to horsepower, the Honda CR-V has a lot less horsepower than the Jeep Wrangler.

Powertrain
The Honda CR-V has much lower torque than the Jeep Wrangler, which generally means that it won't feel as fast or powerful.

Utility
In terms of seating, you'll be able to fit about the same number of people in both the Honda CR-V and the Jeep Wrangler. The Honda CR-V has a roomier cargo area for putting your bags or other items than the Jeep Wrangler.
